This study aimed to evaluate the effect of recombinant bovine somatotropin (bST) in combination with progesterone (P4) and estradiol benzoate (EB) on ovarian follicular dynamics using a protocol for estrus and ovulation synchronization in crossbred Bos taurus taurus cows. Twenty-four non-lactating multiparous cows were randomly assigned to two groups: the recombinant bovine somatotropin group (GbST; n = 11) received an intravaginal P4 device (1.5 g), estradiol benzoate (EB = 1.
